Syrup
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1tbsp lemon juice and zest
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 clove
  • 2 tbsp orange blossom water
  • 1/2 cup honey
Mixed nuts
  • 1/3 cup walnuts
  • 1/3 cup skinless almond
  • 1/3 cup pistachio
  • 2 dried rosebuds
  • 1 tbsp powdered cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp sugar

Preparation

  • STEP 1

    Pour the water, sugar, orange blossom water, cloves, lemon juice, zest, cinnamon stick and honey into a saucepan. Stir until boiling, then leave to cool.

  • STEP 2

    Grind the walnuts, almonds, pistachios and rosebuds with the sugar and powdered cinnamon. Just enough to make a powder, not a paste.

  • STEP 3

    Take the amandine out of the freezer and leave it at room temperature just long enough to open it easily.

    Fill with nut mixture and close. Place on a baking tray and bake for 10 min at 350°F (180°C). Then leave to cool.

  • STEP 5

    Dip the amandine in the syrup and bake for 10 min at 350°F (180°C). Let cool before serving.
